Every man lives by his own faith, and God does not distinguish between classes. Since, in cases of necessity, you have the right to act as a priest, then you must also accept priestly discipline.

For nothing so infallibly shows us the true state of our heart, as that which gives us either delight or trouble; for as our delight and trouble is, so is the state of our heart: if therefore you are carried away with any trouble or delight, that has not an immediate relation to your progress in the divine life, you may be assured your heart is not in its right state of prayer to God.

People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nor deem the irrevocable Past, As wholly wasted, wholly vain,  If, rising on its wrecks, at last   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nor deem the irrevocable Past, As wholly wasted, wholly vain,  If, rising on its wrecks, at last   To something nobler we attain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who limps is still walking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61092]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who limps is still walking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The opposition sees the response to this new crime should be the resignation of the president as the effective head ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34383]]></link><description><![CDATA[The opposition sees the response to this new crime should be the resignation of the president as the effective head of the security and the intelligence regime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fate steals along with silent tread, Found oftenest in what least we dread;  Frowns in the storm with angry ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15387]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fate steals along with silent tread, Found oftenest in what least we dread;  Frowns in the storm with angry brow,   But in the sunshine strikes the blow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a workable document from which good things can flow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38366]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a workable document from which good things can flow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brady's First Law of Problem Solving: When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brady's First Law of Problem Solving: When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question: How would the Lone Ranger have handled this?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In every countrey the sun rises in the morning. [In every country the sun rises in the morning.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49538]]></link><description><![CDATA[In every countrey the sun rises in the morning. [In every country the sun rises in the morning.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And better skilled in dark events to come. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17090]]></link><description><![CDATA[And better skilled in dark events to come.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every sin brings its punishment with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every sin brings its punishment with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gilbert West and his friend, Lord Lyttleton, both men of acknowledged talents, had imbibed the principles of infidelity from a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gilbert West and his friend, Lord Lyttleton, both men of acknowledged talents, had imbibed the principles of infidelity from a superficial view of the Scriptures. Fully persuaded that the Bible was an imposture, they were determined to expose [it]. Mr. West chose the Resurrection of Christ, and Lord Lyttleton the conversion of St Paul, for the subject of hostile criticism. Both sat down to their respective tasks full of prejudice and a contempt for Christianity. The results of their separate endeavours was that they were both converted by their attempts to overthrow the truth of Christianity! They came together, not as they had expected, to exult over an imposture exposed to ridicule, but to lament their folly and congratulate each other on their joint conviction, that the Bible was the word of God. Their able enquiries have furnished two most valuable treatises in favour of revelation -- one, entitled "Observations on the Conversion of St Paul", and the other, "Observations on the Resurrection of Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conscience is a man's compass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21731]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conscience is a man's compass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flame-thrower. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27853]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flame-thrower.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Power corrupts.
